Short Double-Stranded DNA (≤40-bp) Affects Repair Pathway Choice

To repair ionizing radiation (IR)-induced double strand breaks (DSBs), mammalian cells primarily use canonical non-homologous end-joining (cNHEJ), the homologous recombination (HR) pathway, and the alternative non-homologous end-joining (aEJ) as a backup. These pathways function either compensativel...
